Anybody know who makes replacement tops for the 33 Roadsters & Phaetons? Any ballpark concept of a price for a complete top for either? What about suppliers of hardware for these tops?

I made my own top for the '33 roadster. It's not easy and you need a heavy-duty sewing machine but you can do it for under $500. It's time-consuming to make the top bows correctly but I did it so it can't be that hard. No one I know makes the tops for these cars.

Top bows actually are very very good or easy repair. I have ZERO experience with upholstery so was hoping someone like Hampton Coach/LeBaron Bonney mad replacement tops ready to install on the bows. Same for interior kits for these open cars.
